Just about any animal can be bred small. Look at the Welsh pony, who if you saw it with no background references, would look to anyone like a full-size horse.<P>In fact, the dog in the film reminded me of my good ol' dog Rusty, when I was a kid. looked just like a collie-shep mix, except for his size. But to a Hobbit, he would have been the size of Rin-Tin-Tin!
